I have a wireless phone business. I have 9 years of customer service skills. I have this skill in which I use everytime a customer walks in the door. The problem is not that much foot traffic. I do 1000 fliers once a week - around the neighbors. Is there something I can do besides from getting a citation from the city for putting out signages & radio advertisement? Something cost effective?

i have been at my present job as a teacher's assistant for 8.5 years, at this present job we work with toddlers with special needs. I recently got offered a job as an infant teacher working with typical children. My dilemma is that at my present job I only earn 10.69 an hour but have benefits, MANY paid days off, and EXTREME flexibility from my boss. At the new job, I would only have 6 paid holidays off a year, and would be earning 12.00 an hour, i would have benefits but not the flexibility that i currently have. I am also currently continueing my education but at my present job i am not offered the opportunity to become a teacher.

They advertise and sell their teaching DVDs but they dont give much info before you actually buy them . Sounds fishy, right? is it a successful job/investment?

What would be the most beneficial things to fix to add value to our house? It needs many things but what would be best?
Paint(in/out)
Sod (dirt and stickers now)
Carpet(replace or tear out and let the new owners put flooring in)
A/C (needs new handler)
Kitchen cabinets (particle board that is falling apart)
Windows (old and not all working right)
We just want to fix some things but can only afford to do a little at a time while adding value to house. Right now I see "AS IS" in our future sale ad....I would at least like it to read "needs a little TLC" So what would be the first things you would fix?

He says he doesn't want to pay for it because the house is supposed to be for me and my brother. Neither my nor my brothers name appears anywhere on the Deed, just his and his new wife. He bought it as a single man after he and Mom divorced so just his name used to be on the deed. He has taken out a couple of loans on the house to fix up his house that he lives in.
Don't get me wrong I pay rent but should I decide to sell this house to buy another, as was the plan, I won't get what the house is worth.
Now I know that some of you are thinking "I wish that my Dad bought me a house, what is she complaing about?' There is so much more to this story but there is not enough room.
Besides, what I really want to know is, Is there someway that I can make my Dad pay for these problems with the house? As I said I do pay rent, so I am his tenent. He would not do this to anyone else. Are there legal steps that I can take if I have too? "Pretty Please does not work on this man."

I applied for a position at Safeway. Two weeks later they call me up and ask if Im still interesteed in the job. And I said yes then they set an interview for the next day at 11 am but i couldnt go cause i planned on having school so i moved it to 4 pm. But the next day it ended up snowing so school was cancelled. So i got ready for the interview at 4 pm and at the last minute they cancelled and said they had to move it to next week but they didnt have a time or day set. Now im wondering should I call them back and set one or should I wait until they call me back. If I call them back what should i say or ask.

If I was wrongfully terminated because another employee wanted my job, should I tell corporate some other instances that happened with the other employee that were never brought up? I don't want to be a bit** but I don't feel it's fair that I get fired for a little thing and everyone else gets away with these major offenses which were just looked over or not reported as they should have been. Like the employee who is having me fired..was selling adult toys in the backroom of the store! Or, an "elderly"employee who was assulted by a customer that was never reported to corporate, just shrugged off. I could go on. I feel singled out and although I'm not a very vindictive person, I want some sort of "personal" compensation for losing a job that I worked really hard at and was at for a long time. I don't mind losing the job...there are others but the reason for it is just wrong. Would you tell the corporate office or let it slide?

my friend and i are pooling money between guys in our school. so far guys have pledged a grand total of $10,000. my friend says that by day trading copper or silver and selling for a 10 cent profit per share, over the period of a year and a half, our $10,000 will increase to over $100,000. we do have the ability to trade commission free but we do have to pay some sort of note (im not sure what, but is around $30 per sell) but even with this advantage, my friends predictions seem way too optimistic. we would be making these kinds of trades in the ballpark of 5-10 times a week for about a year and a half. what are the problems with this get rich quick scheme? it seems too good to be true for how simple he describes it. i havent been able to argue with him b/c i dont know enough yet. please explain the risks and what we need to do to make this work so this doesnt blow up in our faces. thanks

Whether its whole life, universal life, or variable life, when you pay your premiums, your premiums are being paid for two things: 1) Term insurance and 2) Cash value.

At the beginning, most of your premiums are paid toward the cash value. As you get older, term insurance gets more expensive, so less of your premiums goes toward the cash value.

So the notion that says cash value life insurance isn't Term insurance is not true. Both provide coverage to age 95 or 100. But cash value policies has term insurance premiums that goes up every year, even though premiums as a whole may remain level. But buying term insurance by itself remains level for awhile and only go up when you renew it.

If that's now how cash value work, then what do you make of it?
